Ontal 9.3 single node cluster - how to revert Intercluster lif to home port with cli

thomas382 — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 10:15:29 GMT

Hello;

I successfully updated a 2554 singele node cluster to 9.3P21, with 4 LIFs not at the home port.

I could revert 3 of them without any problems to there home port.

But i cannot revert the Intercluster LIF with the GUI, is there a command for reverting the Intercluster LIF per CLI?

many hanks + Greetings, thomas

This is the standard command to revert LIFs via CLI:
::> network interface revert -vserver <vserver> -lif <intercluster LIF>

Inter cluster lifs do not migrate so they do not revert

haven’t tried lately but you could try:

set advanced

Net int modify -vserver admins vm -LIF iclif -status down

net int modify -vserver admins vm -LIF iclif -home-node xx -home-port xx

Net int modify -vserver admins vm -LIF iclif -status up
